Blackburn College Athletics Philosophy
Statement:

Blackburn College Athletics places highest priority on the
overall quality of the student-athlete experience in academic, work
and athletic endeavors. The College seeks to establish and
maintain an environment in which a student-athlete's co-curricular
activities enhance the student's educational experiences.
Blackburn College Athletics fosters the opportunity for individual
character and leader development, respect for individuals and
promotes lifelong learning. Blackburn also seeks to establish
an atmosphere where cultural diversity and gender equity are valued
among our student-athletes and athletics staff. In addition
the Blackburn Athletics Department seeks to work cooperatively with
all other areas of the campus community to establish open lines of
communication and strong working relationships for the benefit of
the student-athlete.
